Found a brand new Jet 10-20 drum sander for $450 + $60 shipping.

Is this a deal?

Well, at that price, I could not build one for much less. My cost for motors, wood, parts was getting close to $350.

Good luck!

You better be kidding! gaah laughing6-hehe

I have been watching ebay and craigslist for sometime. I will bet anything that the seller got these tools from liquidation.com. I watch that site too. You see some crazy deals every now and again at liquidation.com. But you can end up with a mixed bag of stuff. 10 table saws, etc and a box of barbie dolls.

We should all watch liquidation.com and when a deal like a lot of table saws or drill presses comes up, we can do a group purchase.

Yeah they stock up this time of year prior to the 50% off sale that they always run starting July 15th....... :D laughing6-hehe Sorry - couldn't resist..... :D

You paid about $100 less than I paid for my 10-20 3 years ago - good job! [:Y:]

Well, Glenn needs to look again. One more listed.

If I drive up, I save the shipping... but gas is so high, not sure its worth it, unless I buy that Jet table saw... have you seen it? I do not need much... so it looks more than adequate..http://stores.ebay.com/General-Industrial-Supply

Glenn, use the number I PMd to you to call them. Someone already bid ($1) on the one that is listed again. Maybe thats you??

But, if you are in a hurry, they have plenty. And will sell at $450.

I just saw the PM, and tried calling (6:15 EDT) - nobody picked up (maybe they are closed). I am in Las Vegas on a business trip, so I had limited access to OLF ... I'll call first thing tomorrow morning - hopefully I can grab one a that price :-)

Thanks, Mike, for the heads up!!!

OK all you drum sander owners. I'm thinking supergrit.com for sanding rolls. What grit to use for thicknessing? Do I need more than one grit for thickness? If you know of a place that has a better deal on paper, please let me know.

Thanks,

mike
